I don't know of I can even get my hands on bbs. So they are regulated to have the exact capacity?
I filled one of my primary buckets with water to the 6 gallon ridge line and then poured all the water into a BB. The water came right up to the neck of the BB. Of course racking off the lees and such you'll come up short of the neck but a whole lot less short than with my Italian glass carboys.
My guess is that they are regulated to a consistent size due too the manufacturing process.
